🍂Cozy Sweater Watercolor Sketch Tutorial (Patreon)

In this lesson we’ll paint one of the most comforting symbols of autumn — a soft knitted sweater with golden leaves and a cup of tea.

This subject is full of warmth and atmosphere, and it’s also a wonderful way to practice textures and details. Together we’ll explore:

✨ How to sketch and paint knit patterns with watercolor and liner

🍁 How to add autumn leaves and small details to make the composition come alive

☕️ How to combine washes and linework for a cozy, expressive result

The lesson is beginner-friendly, and it’s a perfect chance to slow down, relax, and capture the gentle mood of autumn in your sketchbook.

Wrap yourself in autumn coziness and join me for this heartwarming sketch. 🎨
